I tried doing something similar but also the graph has to be put in a system
Let me show you
ok
i see
alrighty
so the vertical asymptotes
are going to be pi units apart
right?
on a tan graph
so have your first asymptote at -pi/8
Yess I got that
Correct
so where tan(x+5pi/8) = 1
tahts where 9/2tan(x+5pi/8) = 9/2
where does tan(x) = 1?
do you know?
I got confused 
my bad
It’s okay I’m just having a hard time understanding this 😭
,,\tan\left(x+\frac{5\pi}{8}\right)
epiphonically
epiphonically
epiphonically
would be?
1?-1?
epiphonically
epiphonically
Oh that makes sense
so if we find that x value
we just move the slider at that place
to 9/2
the hard question is
,,\tan\left(x+\frac{5\pi}{8}\right)
epiphonically
Yes
epiphonically
If I were to solve for x here that’ll be -3pi/8 
Yeah
move the puprple dot at -3pi/8 up to 9/2
youre vertical asymptotes arei n the wrong spot
she has to move dots on her pc
Yeah if I move the purple dots I move everything in the graph
Did u try graphical tranforms?
Yeah
Did that not solve it?
easy fix
dw
just move it
to -pi/8
remember
?
it should be an eighth of the way from pi
on the left side
to pi
sorry
not from
an eighth of the way to pi
I’ve tried to put it in the calculator too
yea there
Yes
But what about the purple dot
I’ve tried to locate the blue dot at 4.5
Also another question. Will my purple dot be on top of the x-axis or at -1
-1
but i reccomend
doing that last
cause its gonna make the blue dot harder to place
np

@tepid raven Has your question been resolved?
@daring citrus Yes, that’s what I thought too. But you mean ^2.5 ? As an exponent right?
That’s what I did
depends if its simple interest or compound
I was taught to use this formula on these kind of problems: f = p * (1 + y)^n
yeh then use that one
That’s compound right?
yep
Cool. Are you good with these kind of problems in finance?
I could use some help sometimes lately if you’re open to it.
i cant guarantee
i can only tell after seeing the question
Okay. Yeah that’s all I really want is to be able to check my work with someone who understands finance for the most part.
Would you mind if I add you or pm you if anything comes up?
i think the best way to do it would be just using the server itself
but if in case noone answers for too long then you can dm me :)
Ok no problem, thank you

(b) Let I ⊆ R be an ideal and let π : R → R/I, a → [a]_I. Show that
π : R^{n,n} → (R/I)^{n,n}, [a{ij}] → [(a_{ij})]
is a surjective ring homomorphism of the rings R^{n,n} and (R/I)^{n,n}.
R^{n,n} denotes the set of n x n matrices whose entries are values of R?
I think so, yes

hey so im workig on a project right now trying to relate quadratic inequalities to real life physics and i need an opinon if thats alll right
so what if a cannon ball was shot at an angle and it had to clear over a wall that is 37 feet tall to destroy the castle of Sir Urmomisphat's Kingdom?
that is one example
so i have to sovle to find the angle
?
because the whole point of the project is to relate to real life
why did u delete?
Delete what
what u said
I never said that
I think you're hallucinating
do my eyes deciece me
Yeah they do lol
I mean it's a physics problem
You can use your fancy physics equations and all that to do it
I haven't taken physics yet so I don't know them but I just provided an example
im not trynna do all tha tlma
i just need to relate quadratic ineqaliteis an physics into a rael ife scnario
Oh yeah then you can use that
Don't worry about angles
"A cannon shoots a cannonball represented by quadratic f. 50 meters away from the cannon, there is a wall that is 37 meters tall. Will the cannon ball clear the wall?"
I mean that is just an example
You don't have to solve it
That is one way you can relate it
By giving a real world scenario
well the whole point is that i have to make a step by step process on solving the problem by giving a presentaion
Oh that's not too bad
yea im just dumb lmao
Well you need to find some realistic equation for f
would finding the distance of a ball dropping in the time period of 3 seconds work as a rea life scenario
with the equation
d=ViT + 1/2at
To be honest I have not taken physics so I don't know
All you do is find the equation for the trajectory and use an inequality to express the domain at which it clears the height of the wall, w
So that f(x) > w
im trying to think and proccess this
cause im not to keen with math or physics lol
could we get someone who knows physics in here aswell for there physics opinion
@copper condor Has your question been resolved?
yes this would work
rectilinear motion would be better to work with
unless u want to make it fancy
its for math 3
and its only a 4 min presentaion
but what is the quadratic inequalites
in the problem
should be fine then i believe
so it's not exactly distance travelled in that time
u could set up a range for the height u want to reach / distance to cover
and work out the range of initial velocity / the time of flight
so waht would the inequality be then
so i cant stick to the basic just trying to find the basic distance
using d=ViT + 1/2at
1/2at^2
so what do u want to do? drop a ball from a height or throw a ball up?
drop from height
ok
do u minf if i add u too a clall
with my partent
cauuse i gotta mulkti task with him
but i have some work coming up so can't really help much / i'll leave midway
honestly there's nothing much really
so basically can i talk about a baseball i want to drop and i want to find disatance covered ovet the course of 5 seconds and accelataion is 9.8 would the whoel thign look like
d = 1/2 (9.8) (5) ^2
so how woiuld i make it into an inequality
so one idea could be
u have some sort of a detector which detects a ball in front of it
and it's placed over a length of say 2 m
and u drop a ball from above
so over what time interval will the detector detect the ball?
something like that
and the ball is dropped from say 10m above
i hope u get the situation
so u have say the starting point of the detector and the end point
then starting<distance<end
rough sketch
so u need to find the time interval in which the ball lies in the blue region
which is the detector
not sure if i can explain further
why not?
.
so theres no tecnical equation
like theres no equation to solve for the interval of time
cause im pretty sure this (then starting<distance<end) isnt an equation i can use to solve

I need the answer for f(-10). Thanks!
Which partition contains -10 in its domain
Not sure what you mean by that.
You have three partitions
t^2-5t
t+19
t^3/(t+9)
They're restricted by certain domain restrictions
So which restriction contains -10
Look at the first one. It's $t\leq -10$. What does that mean
Umbraleviathan
Less than or equal to.
Yeah
The "or equal to" part indicates that it includes -10
So just plug in -10 into the first partition
Np lol

I'm struggling to follow an equivalency given by a practice assignment. This is the first equivalency
https://i.imgur.com/IDY75HO.png
It then goes to say "Obviously $E$ and $F$ are independent exactly when $$(n+1)/n = 2^{n-1}/(2^{n-1}-1).$$" So far so good, I follow. The equation needs to be 1 so the independency works.
However, it loses me when it says "Especially, $n=2^{n-1} - 1$ needs to hold". But... I'm not sure how that follows. I can't figure out a way to alter the formula algebraically to that equivalency, and I'm unaware of any rule that would allow me that conclusion. Admittedly I still struggle with Maths sometimes, so any help would be appreciated.

if
a+b+c= ax +by +cz
then
x=y=z?
try plugging numbers
i mean if x=y=z, then theyre all equal to one
m actually tryna prove something else
so i need to know if this holds true
No it doesn't. For this to be true, you would need to be at least in a 3D vector space (R is 1D, the set of all real multiples of 1), and even then it's not guaranteed.

For b) I understand it's basically asking P(L>20|L>16)
Normally to calculate this I would use P(AnB)/P(A) = P(B|A)
how would I calculate P(AnB) in this case
or is P(AnB) = P(B) becasuse L>20 intersects L>16 for L>20
idk if that makes sense or not

hello if k = 0, would this result in just (a_n, b_n] or {}?
I'd guess it's a typo and it was supposed to say n=0 or k>=1 haha
I don't think that notation makes any sense when k=0
that what i wrote is technically this, right?
Like does the thing get called once or doesnt even start
the empty union is typically defined to be the empty set
I guess I'd read it as $]a_1,b_1]\cup]a_0,b_0]$ when $k=0$ if you wrote it like that but I'd still be wondering why it was written like that
similar to how the empty sum is 0 or the empty product is 1
Spring
Ok so that tells me that the empty set exists in R as a better proof
for k=0

@late cypress Has your question been resolved?
Could you show whole question?
It's ok. Let me read it...
@late cypress Yes, same with my work
let's say the equation is y=(x+20)(20000-650x)
would the max income be 400000
@cinder kayak
should be y=(x+25)(20000-650x)
for the income to be 400000
y=(x+25)(20000-750x)
ya but let's say we change the equation
to y=(x+20)(20000-650x)
since y=(x+25)(20000-750x) the max income is 500000 right?
Hmmm...how do you get max. revenue of $400000?
@late cypress
if y=(x+20)(20000-650x)
It is correct now
i think so

Is D3 isormorphic to S3?
It is right? Since D3 is a subgroup of S3?
wait nvm, I dont think that proofs its isomorphic
From an excercise in the previous chapter, I know every element in D3 corresponds to an element in S3
I think this is a proof?
@chrome idol Has your question been resolved?
Wait nvm
Yeah you basically have to construct the function from one to the other
Or, show that this is the only group of order 6 with some property
I think this is a proof too
Like, that's basically constructing the isomorphism of groups between the two groups
Btw you could have created such isomorphism with only 2 elements, the generators

I found this theorem here
Does this help at all for the question?
Im not sure how the group of permutations of S3 is
How many elements does D3 have?
6
So D3 is isomorphic to a subgroup of S3, and it has 6 elements. Do you see how that implies it is isomorphic to S3?
This picture also gives you the explicit isomorphism
is this from the result from Cayleys Theorem?
Don't even need Cayleys theorem here, it's a subgroup of size 6, of a group of size 6, so it must be (isomorphic to) the whole group
could you state that more explicitly? Im having some trouble following the logic
"If a box only holds 6 things, and I put 6 things in it, have I filled the box up?"
Yes, D3 is iso to some subgroup of S3, but since D3 and S3 both have 6 elements, the only subgroup it can be iso to is the subgroup of S3 with 6 elements, which is the whole of S3
ok, that makes sense
I think my problem is that, this feels very detached from the definition of isomorphism , specifically the homomorphism part
Sorry the answer to this should have been yes, I am using cayleys theorem. Cayleys theorem is powerful as we can show things are isomorphic without having to explicitly construct the isomorphism
As I said, the picture you sent is an explicit construction of the isomorphism
So in this case, what is "G"?
D3 or S3
It should be D3 right? Since S3 is the symmetric group, which is literally defined as the set of all permutations of D3
And for D4 and S4, they should obviously not be isomorphic, since they have different orders

can someone give me tips on how to approach this question using math induction?
i think i know whats induction, but the process of proving the steps is really hard for me

Need some advice on logic
I want to make a formula so that it is acepted by the natural numbers but not by the amount of the whole numbers
Currently got this :
There exist an x(exist an y( exist an z( (x*y=z )and x<y and y<z)))
Would that be correct?
F.ex 12=2would be acepted but
-32=-6 would not or?
Your assertion doesn't make sense if you don't precise the sets in which you choose your variables x,y and z.
For example, if x,y and z are complex number, then the "x<y and y<z" part won't make sense.
Natural numbers as in {1,2.....} and whole numbers as in {-1.....0.....}
So no complex numbers
Or am i misunderstanding you?
I know right, what I mean is that we can't know what numbers are x,y and z if you don't precise it in your formula
Is it enough if i give a structure? Like N=(N,<,) Z=(Z,<,)?
Or must it be specifically in the formula
Sorry i am a little confused
It is fine, actually you just need to add:
There exist a natural number x(exist a natural number y( exist anatural number z( (xy=z )and x<y and y<z)))
With these additional details, your formula would be defined for the cases where x,y and z are all natural numbers
So -3*2=-6 wouldn't be accepted because x and z are defined as natural numbers
Ok i think i got it thank you very much
No problem, in terms of symbols, it would just mean to write ∃x∈N instead of ∃x

Guys, I have just started summer school in Calculus. I am already losing myself. What we did during the lesson did not completely cover what we were given as homework. We were not taught derivatives yet (thats our next unit). We are using the method of f(x+h)-f(x)/h
But I do not understand the questions fully... Can anyone please help?
Could I ask you a question? what do you think h mean here?
Since we only did determining of the tangent slope with this method I have only started question 4
After some algebraic work I have got the answer to be m=2 but that is where I am stuck now.
is not h our difference between our x points?
correct
What am I supposed to do here sir? Like I found out that m=2 but the answer sheet gives a different answer because of this part. What does this part mean?
I did m=lim ((h^2+2h+1)-3)-(-2) and all of that /h
h--->0
after some work I got m=lim h(h+2)/h so I cancelled the h
h---->0
Lastly, I have inserted the 0 from the h-------->0 and so I got m=0+2...... which is 2.
But they did this. What does this mean?
So I'm confused by what you wrote here. What substitution did you make
ok you shouldn't be doing substitution at the very beginning
as that leads to some obvious errors
solve it with the variables first
We were only taught this method today, we never learned derivatives as that is our next unit. What would you do sir?
Ok give me a sec
the value of f(x+h)= x^2 -2hx +h^2 - 3
f(x+h) - f(x) = -2hx + h^2
Also the question you solved is the inverse of the problem it is 3- x^2 while you solved x^2-3
no -1* (x^2-3 ) = -x^2 + 3 = 3 - x^2
They are not the same. which explains why the answer is the inverse of the actual answer
I see sir. Give me one second sir. Just one moment.
what would we do here sir?
so I have (3-(h^2+2h+1))
This is where I have made a mistake I believe. That is why I tried doing the inverse I guess.
Now that I found -2 as you said before
I finally did the right one, and not the inverse. Could you please explain me this part of the question?
<@&286206848099549185>
Give me one moment to make a graph.
Thank you for offering help guys. This means a lot.
thank you so much sir
As you make h smaller and smaller, you will notice that the slope approaches a particular value.
yes
This is an application of the Mean Value Theorem and Limits.
I see
I understand that part that a tangent line crosses one point but that the secant crosses two
P and Q favourably
so we have to mmove it as close to the tangent as possible
That is how a limit is used to determine the slope at a point, x_0, on a function, f(x).
yes
To determine the slope of a line, you need two points which gives you a change in y over a change in x.
what if we are given multiple points sir?
However, given a single point on a curve, you cannot directly determine its slope because it is a single pont.
one short question in between, is this correct sir? Solutions are not given for the 5th question here.
So we use limits to estimate a slope at a single point by making the observation that as the distance between x_0 and x_h gets smaller and smaller, it does a great job of approximiting the slope at x_0.
yes
we were taught this m=lim
h----->0
method
Yes.
to determine the exact
lim
and not just like aprox, which was did with another method which my class did not cover
it was this one with 0.0001 something
but it is irrelevant anyways since the other one is much more accurate right
so yes I did understand that part. I just did not understand the question itself , like I can do the method
So the question is asking you to use the given values of x_0 and approximate the slope at that point by finding the slope of secant lines whose points get closer and closer.
like the 0.1, 0.01 etc?
Sorry that I am so stupid sir
but I just do not understand. I know how to find the lim with the method I just explained. I do not know what the question wants more from me, or how to get there
$(x_{0}, f(x_{0}))$ to $(x_{0}+x_{h}, f(x_{0}+x_{h}))$
Kookiemon
Using those points, you can find the slope.
As x_h gets smaller and smaller, you will find that the slope becomes an approximation of the slope at x_0.
I understand the visualization
it perfectly makes sense, it is the algebra that now confuses me a little bit
like the x0 is our 0.001?
that is given in the question right
The question just wants you to approximate the slope at each given x_0.
Using the aforementioned method.
so to approximate is not exact like what I did
I am sorry to bother you this much sir, would you please just show me an example?
No worries, I wouldn't be here if I wasn't interested in helping.
Like I found the m= 1/2sqrt2
I found the solution to be this
this table I do not understand sir
Like my result is exact, therefore it is 0.35 smth if we turn it into a decimal
what does this table represent sir?
Does it represent the h getting smaller?
Because that does make sense, we want to be as close as possible, so we make it smaller right. But I just do not seem to completely get it...
Like the numbers inside
So the first column, x_p, would be x_O in my example.
And x_q would be the difference, h.
oooh now I see
that is the problem, they do not say that in the question.
so the original is sqrt 2 so to speak
but how do we get 1.449? Isnt sqrt2 = 1.41
I found 4 mistakes so far in this homework sir... 😄 and the hw is given by waterloo!
exactly
thats what I did understand but 1.41 + 0.1 isnt 1.49 it is 1.51 right?
so therefore it did not maky any sense t ome
Well, actually ...
f(x_p) will still give sqrt( x_p + 2).
So actually, I'm mistaken.
Ok, let me take a step back because I was mistaken.
No problem sir, thank you for your patience.
So the function f(x) = sqrt( x + 2).
x_p is the point whose slope you are trying to determine.
x_q is the point which is getting closer and closer to x_p which are used to determine a secant line with a slope.
Given x_p = 0, f(x_p) = sqrt( 0 +2) = sqrt(2).
$x_{p} = 0 \
f(0) = \sqrt{0+2} = \sqrt{2}$
Kookiemon
The 1.449 comes from
$x_{q} = 0.1 \
f(0.1) = \sqrt{0.1 + 2} = \sqrt{2.1} \approx 1.449$
Kookiemon
Sir
you are the man
I am finally
understanding now
And so now that we have our
2 x values so to speak
we can finally use the formula m= y2-y1/x2-x1
right?
Yes, and that is given to you in the last column of the chart.
I see
I finally understand
so to sum it up
our new value is basically just adding the 0.1 or 0.001 etc.
and finding the aprox value
of the rate of change which is m
which is not going to be as precise as using the method
m= lim
h---> 0
it is just there to highlight that right?
The limit will give you a precise answer because the limit assumes an infinitesimally small value for h.
This question is just showing you why it works.
We are actually never really reaching that point
but at the same time we are, pretty weird when I think about it.
It is like walking towards a wall
but never reaching it
in a way.
Yeah, it is weird and quite a leap of logical faith. 🙂
sir
since you are the math enthusiast here
let me give you one equation
do with it waht you want, you dont have to touch it
im just curious here you go:
ill give you two actually
All I know, is that they are impossible to solve using graph analytical technique
anyways, thank you for your help all the best sir!!!!
yw 🙂

This seems like a question for you to apply L'Hospital Rule
No i have to do without that
So you tried using Maclaurin Expansions
Yes
Oh shit
I forgot that there is an e^x
Can someone help me solve for z
Nah idk any geometry 😞
oof
is this 2d geometry?
yea
thx
Are u here
If i write the e^x expansion i dont think it changes anything
Alright let us first check how it's even n = 4 or not
then we'll try to find a process which is not L'Hospital
